“Old Master Guo, you’ve misunderstood me! What I’m trying to say is that we can dig out a pool near this water source. In the future, it will be very convenient for everyone to use water when they need it. If I occupy this water source, should I give it to others or not? If I give it to them and they slander my water for having problems and making customers get food poisoning, what should I do when they ask me for compensation?” Luo Cheng explained patiently.

Old Master Guo finally understood what Luo Cheng meant.

To be honest, Luo Cheng was really thoughtful, because something like this could easily happen.

Old Master Guo looked up at the group of people who had been paying attention to them and sighed.

“Your concern is right. Since we’re here, I’ll give you another piece of land! There’s a bigger piece of land ahead that’s ownerless, but if you want it, you’ll have to pay more money to buy it!” Old Master Guo said as he pointed at the piece of land beside the pipe not far away.

Luo Cheng looked at the location and nodded in agreement.

“Alright, let’s change it to that piece of land! Let’s go over and discuss how much silver I need!”

Old Master Guo nodded and walked towards the field with Luo Cheng.

Li Shun saw this and thought for a moment. It seemed that he had to build a new stove.

Soon, Luo Cheng and Old Master Guo finished discussing it.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and waved at Li Xiaoran.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran quickly walked over.

“For the next few days, we’ll still set up a stall at our original place to sell food. It’ll still take a few days for the deed to be settled. We might as well take this opportunity to construct the shop. When the shop is constructed and the stove is done, we’ll move in! I’m going back to the village with the village chief to settle the matter of buying the land so as to prevent any accidents!”

Li Xiaoran also felt that this matter shouldn’t be delayed, so he agreed with Luo Cheng’s actions.

“Just go about your business! My family’s here. Nothing can go wrong! But what about the water source in that puddle?”

“Dig a ditch and let the water flow into the ditch over there! If someone wants to use the water, just catch it yourself. Anyway, we guideed the water to flow into the ditch. If they want to use it, it’s their business. We don’t have to be responsible!” said Luo Cheng.

Li Xiaoran thought about it and felt that it was a good idea, so she nodded.

“Don’t worry about this. I’ll explain it to the others when Old Master Guo and I leave!” Luo Cheng was a little worried, so he simply took this matter into his hands.

“Okay!” Li Xiaoran knew that Luo Cheng didn’t want her to appear, so she nodded and agreed.

With the matter discussed, the three of them returned to where the water source had been found.

Luo Cheng glanced at the group of people around him and said with a straight face, “Yuan Cheng, Mao Dao, take a hoe and dig out a ditch to guide the water to the drainage ditch over there. It’s not mine anymore after we leave this land. If you want to use it, feel free to use it. However, let me say this first. If anything happens to any of you, don’t find trouble with us. After all, we’ve already guided the water to the drainage ditch!”

Many people looked happy at this moment and nodded in agreement. “That’s only right! After all, we use the water from the sewers, so we naturally won’t blame others!”

Since everyone had said so, Luo Cheng’s expression improved a little. Then, he followed Old Master Guo back to the village.

With the troublemakers taken away and the problem with the water source resolved, Li Xiaoran finally heaved a sigh of relief.

At this moment, some customers came one after another, and Li Xiaoran began to get busy.

It had to be said that Luo Cheng really had foresight.

After getting busy, Li Xiaoran really had no time to rest.

Even with the help of Li Shun and Zhao Xiu, the family was still extremely busy.

Later, Yuan Cheng gave the sorghum steamed bun stall to Mao Tao to look after, and he also came over to help with the noodle stall.

During this period of time, the news that Li Xiaoran and the others’ knife noodles were tasty had also spread.

Therefore, many people would come to try this knife-cut noodles when they passed by.

Of course, the taste of the knife-cut noodles didn’t disappoint the customers.

Therefore, many customers also came from Golden Sun Town.

At this moment, a young master in an ivory robe walked over alone.

He raised his eyebrows when he saw that the small noodle stall was actually packed.

“I really didn’t expect that a roadside noodle stall would have such good business! It seems that this bowl of sliced noodles is worth a try!”

As he spoke, one of the customers stood up, paid, and left.

The young man didn’t mind. He immediately sat down and took a seat.

“Give me a bowl of minced meat with sliced noodles. I want a big bowl!” The young master sat down and shouted.

“Okay! Please wait a moment!” When Li Xiaoran heard that someone had ordered noodles, she replied and handed the noodles in her hand to her sister, Li Xiaoqing, for her to deliver to the customer.

No matter how many customers there were or how chaotic the scene was, Li Xiaoran could accurately remember the order of customers and their seats. Then, she would accurately send the noodles over according to the order of the customers.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, no one complained about the wrong thing being served.

When the young master realized this, his eyes flashed with surprise.

Soon, his bowl of sliced noodles was served.

The young man picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.

The young man’s eyes narrowed as a sliced noodle entered his mouth.

He had to admit that it tasted a lot better than the knife-cut noodles he used to eat elsewhere.

With this thought in mind, he picked up his chopsticks and ate.

After eating a large bowl of sliced noodles, the young master put down his chopsticks in satisfaction.

“Fortunately, I asked for a big bowl earlier. Otherwise, there really wouldn’t be enough for me!”

With that, the young man took out his wallet and paid for the noodles.

However, the young master didn’t leave after eating the noodles. Instead, he leaned towards Li Xiaoran.

“Stall owner! Your cooking skills aren’t bad! However, it’s a waste of talent to stay here! I wonder if you’ve ever thought of leaving here to open a shop in White Foothill City!”

...

Li Xiaoran glanced at the young master in front of her and sensed that he had no ill intentions, so she shook her head.

“My home is here. I love it here!”

“Wherever you are is where your home is! How about this?! As long as you’re willing to open a noodle shop in White Foothill City, I can provide you with a shop and a house to live in. I won’t charge you rent, as long as you cook the noodles for me every time I come to eat them and don’t charge me!” The young master encouraged.
